I read on Wikipedia that the mistake in Book 4 where James comes out of Voldemort's wand before Lily was corrected in subsequent editions. Does anyone have such an edition, and if so, could you quote the passage in question?

 

Yeah, that's true. I have it, but I ain't typing it out. Maybe someone will copy/paste part of an e-book for you.

 

... where's the use in that? What do you expect?

Yeah, didn't think so.

 

All they did was switch around the names. There's not any more than that.

And, I mean, that was such an obvious mistake. A two year old could have pointed that one out. How did no one catch that before it went into print?

 

See JKR's Website:

So it was a corrector's fault. Just the one who should eliminate such errors.

 

...but apparently not big ones.

I'm just curious how they put it, and would like to have the correct version. Call it perfectionism, if you like.
